We all love to rag on Google, but this is such a nonsense website. Most of the things “killed” there are superseded by another product, like AI studio replacing Firebase Studio and Google TV replacing Chromecast. Then there’s stuff nobody’s ever heard of just to pad the list.
there were two things i loved. one i think was called turntable, which let you and friends take turns DJing. you’d queue up a song and then after your 2 or 3 or idk i usually used it with the same group friends got their plays in, you got yours. i don’t know what happened to it as we stopped using it.
then was thesixtyone, which had great artist discovery. but they were not the best about getting licenses and lost their eventual IP lawsuit. after that they kind of turned into spotify. i’ve just been using my private collection since then.
Still mourning Google Reader, luckily we can find consolation i in that all those apps and services weren’t strategically killed by an evil corporation.
another one bites the dust.

RIP Google Play Music. Have yet to find another streaming service who’s algorithm knew me so well to discover new music

That one doesn’t make a lick of sense.
